WHY JOIN, YOU ASK …

Squash Nova Scotia is the “big tent” of squash in Nova Scotia. It is funded by the province, YOUR MEMBERSHIP FEES, revenue from activities, sponsors and donations.

If you like the sport and want it to continue and flourish in this province, then that should be enough reason to join.

If it isn’t, here is what your membership fee does for you directly.  The benefits of the various membership classes are listed here https://nssquash.ca/membership-classes/

True, a lot of the work of sports organizations like Squash Nova Scotia happens behind the scenes. But it is important work, done on your behalf to further the sport.

A lot of us love the sport because we love the community of people who come with it.

Squash Nova Scotia brings that community together, helping to organize tournaments and leagues, providing and supporting training for volunteers, coaches, officials and senior an junior players.  This includes youth development and programs for women and newcomers to the sport.
